The 26-year-old former Parenthood star created the series and based it on a script she wrote when she was 12. As part of a “For Your Consideration” Emmy push, Sarah hosted a live reading of the show on Friday (June 2) in Los Angeles.

Thomas Mann, Olivia Cooke, and RJ Cyler hit the red carpet at the UK premiere of their critically acclaimed movie Me and Earl and the Dying Girl on Wednesday (August 19) at Somerset House in London, England.

The three stars have been touring around Europe this week to promote the film, which was just slated for a Blu-ray and DVD release in the U.S. on October 6.

Speaking with Nylon, Olivia chatted about the looks she received after she shaved her head for the role.

“Walking down the street [when I had hair], I didn’t realize how aware I was of the looks I got from men and how that made me feel. Once that was taken away, it made me sad because I felt invisible, and I didn’t feel attractive or desired, which is a weird thing that I wasn’t really aware of anyway,” she shared.

Olivia continued, “People aren’t inclined to talk to you—mainly men—because there’s not a lot in it for them, you’re not their ‘type.’ It didn’t make me feel liberated or free or anything like that, which people said it would. It made me feel really angry that beauty standards for women are just so inaccessible.”
